Niksen: Embracing the Dutch Art of Doing Nothing

The Dutch people are some of the happiest in the world. Their secret? They are masters of niksen, or the art of doing nothing. Niksen is not a form of meditation, nor is it a state of laziness or boredom; rather, "to niks" is to make a conscious choice to sit back, let go, and do nothing at all.  Backed with advice from the world’s leading experts on happiness and productivity, this book examines the underlying science behind niksen and how doing less can often yield so much more. Perfect for anyone who feels overwhelmed, burnt out, or exhausted, you can learn how to take a break from your busy life and give yourself sincere, heartfelt permission to do nothing.
